Chapter 44 On the Foundation

"No, when I arrived, I only saw this guy and two corpses, it should be a friend who was traveling with him or a monk who smoked phantom jade incense together."

"By the way, he lives in the third small courtyard in front of him, you two go and search, I'll rest here, and watch him by the way."

With that, White sat cross-legged on the ground and swallowed a stasis pill.

Seeing that the other party was so neat, Wang Mu and Wang Shi had nothing to hesitate, so they walked directly towards the small courtyard that Bai Fang was referring to

Approaching the small courtyard, Wang Shi suddenly smiled, and he smiled at Wang Mu: "Since I knew that you were favored by Senior Lan, everyone's opinion of you has changed." ”

Wang Mu rarely paid attention to these, so he asked in hindsight, "Is there one?" ”

Wang Shi nodded and pushed open the courtyard door: "Look at Zhao Kun, and Bai Fang, who originally just took care of you as a newcomer, but now they treat you as a thigh." ”

"Including the rest of the team, I don't dare to be a senior in front of you."

Wang Mu smiled and touched his chin: "So, I'm already a hidden boss now, Xiaoshi, why don't you hurry up and hug my thigh?" ”

"You can fuck off your uncle." Wang Shi said with a look of disdain.

"Oh, then I don't need to see tonight's spiritual guidance, I'm a little busy."

Wang Mu laughed in a low voice and said arrogantly.

Wang Shi's face darkened, and he instantly changed his face and hugged Wang Mu's arm and said in a delicate tone: "Oh, my dear Wang Dashao, Xiao Shi said the wrong thing just now, and I will hug your thigh tightly from now on." ”

Wang Mu suddenly shook off Wang Shi's hand in disgust: "Go, go, sissy, get out." ”

Wang Shi laughed twice, and then wondered, "What is a sissy?" ”

"A man who doesn't look like a man." Wang Mu explained simply and straightforwardly.

Wang Shi put away his smiling face at this time: "Okay, okay, don't make trouble, let's search well, don't let go of every corner." ”

"If you can find the Phantom Jade Fragrance and hand it in, it will be a great achievement."

"The reason why White gave this errand to the two of us is to repay the favor, so don't let him down."

"Of course, if I had to find it first, I wouldn't have let you."

Wang Mu nodded: "Don't worry, this matter will definitely not happen." ”

Speaking of this, his body moved, and he directly urged his body to rush into the courtyard.

After Wang Shi was stunned for a moment when he saw this, he immediately scolded, and also urged his body to rush to another room in the courtyard.

With this effort, the two of them searched the entire courtyard in a carpet manner.

When they met at the door, Wang Muzheng looked happy, while Wang Shi looked depressed.

"Hahaha, I found half a piece of Phantom Jade Incense!"

Wang Mumei smiled as she held a piece of yellow square solid that had been half burned and blackened.

Wang Shi was speechless and said, "Ma Dan, I haven't even found a single hair." ”

Then he looked at the things in Wang Mu's hand with envy.

This yellow square solid is the famous phantom jade incense.

It is not the stick incense used by ordinary people, but a lumpy solid.

It doesn't weigh much when you hold it in your hand.

Even if you lie on it and smell it carefully, you won't smell any aroma.

But if this object is ignited by fire, it can faintly emit a magical fragrance, which makes the monk fall into a fantasy world.

The information about Phantom Jade Fragrance must be known to everyone who enters the Patrol Division.

And because Wang Mu has been in the patrol department for a short time, he has not systematically learned these miscellaneous knowledge.

However, in his free time, Wang Shi still dictated some things that he had to know to Wang Mu.

So for this phantom jade incense, Wang Mu can be regarded as having some understanding.

The one they found was the lowest quality phantom jade incense.

There are three grades of Phantom Jade Incense, the lowest is yellow quality, followed by red quality, and the best is purple quality.

It is said that the color of this thing has changed due to the amount of a certain elixir mixed with it.

The darker the color, the better the quality.

"The Patrol Division has a rule, if you hand over one or two yellow phantom jade incense, you can get a reward of ten merit points." Wang Shi pouted.

"I know," Wang Mu smiled, "I guess this piece can be exchanged for five or six merits." ”

"It's just five or six spirit stones, and Young Master Ben can't even look down on them."

As he spoke, Wang Shi turned over his hand and wiped it from his waist, casually threw two complete pieces of yellow phantom jade incense into the air, and caught it with his hand.

"it!" Seeing this scene, how could Wang Mu not know that he was played by Wang Shi.

"Good guy, actor, you are!" Wang Mu suddenly became as sour as a lemon.

didn't think about it, but Wang Shi smiled and threw the two pieces of phantom jade incense to Wang Mu: "Teasing you, pick up half of it to see what makes you proud." ”

"Take it and hand it over together, just when I exchange it for the Ning Lingsan you just gave me, by the way, I don't care about this mustard seed bag, it's a prostitute."

Wang Mu took the phantom jade incense and smirked: "Okay." ”

Wang Shi touched the mustard seed bag on his waist and sighed that this thing was really useful.

Just two pieces of phantom jade incense, you can't buy such a good thing.

And Wang Mu was also holding the phantom jade incense beautifully, thinking that the more than 20 meritorious deeds in exchange for this would become a medium-grade spirit stone in the future.

Just when the brothers were silly, Liu Yao and others finally led the team over.

The subsequent process was nothing to do with Wang Mu and the others.

Liu Yao and others will clean up the scene and take the criminals into custody.

And Wang Mu and the others took Bai Fang back to the division to heal their injuries, and by the way, they handed in the phantom jade incense to exchange for meritorious service.

However, when exchanging merit points, Lao Chen, who guarded the treasury, was unexpectedly a little strict.

Especially when asking about the amount of Phantom Yuxiang, he also asked Wang Mu to sign a guarantee.

As stated on the guarantee.

If Wang Mu has the act of secretly hiding the phantom jade incense during this period.

Once discovered, they will be kicked out of the Patrol Division and abolished as punishment.

In this regard, Wang Mu was not excited, but calmly signed a guarantee, saying that he would strictly abide by the rules.

After leaving the treasury, Wang Shi said: "See, for Phantom Yuxiang, our Qingshan City is very strict, don't be stupid." ”

"Yes." Wang Mu waved his hand, with his qualifications, he didn't need this thing at all.

Look at the extra twenty-six merit points in the waist card.

Wang Mu thought about it and didn't use it.

He plans to save it for a later date when he needs to redeem it.

The incident of being taken away from the mustard seed bag that day can be regarded as a long memory for him.

"What's next?" Walking out of Nanyuan, Wang Shi looked at Wang Mu and asked.

In the Patrol Division, all members of the patrol team who have carried out a criminal repair and arrest operation can be directly on duty.

Unless there is an urgent task, the day is a good time off.

That's why he asked.

Wang Mu thought for a while: "You go to my house first, call Wan'er too, show her how she works, and wait for me to come back." ”

"I'll go to Master Xuan's to open a small stove."

Wang Shi smiled and said, "Go, go, I'll wait for you in the courtyard." ”

After the two separated, Wang Mu went straight to the Beiyuan Patrol Division.

I found Xuan Donglai, who was talking about something with Lan Wangji around a picture in the courtyard.

Seeing that the two seemed to have something important to discuss, Wang Mu did not approach rashly, but stood respectfully at the gate and waited.

The two sensed Wang Mu's arrival almost at the same time, and after glancing at him, they beckoned him over.

When they got closer, Wang Mu saw that the map between the two should be a topographic map of Baishui Town.

And there are many imprints on it, which seems to be a map of the city defense.

Thinking of this, Wang Mu looked away.

The city defense map can be regarded as the core secret of a city.

It's not something he can peep into, so he doesn't pay attention anymore.

"Senior Lan, Uncle Xuan." Wang Mu saluted respectfully.

Xuan Dong glanced at him, did not put away the drawing, but said in surprise: "Aren't you worth it today?" Why did you come to me? ”

"Just now I caught a monk who stole the phantom jade incense to cultivate, and after coming back to exchange for meritorious service, he was idle."

Wang Mu said truthfully.

Xuan Donglai came to understand: "I see, you wait a minute, we will finish the matter." ”

Then, Xuan Donglai and Lan Wangji looked at the picture together and fell silent.

Wang Mu on the side looked at this scene curiously, feeling the spiritual power that was constantly circling back and forth on the two of them, guessing what the two were talking about.

At this time, Xuan Donglai and Lan Wangji were not looking at the city defense map in a daze.

The spiritual power flowing between the two is the best evidence.

This is a kind of monk's little skill for the use of spiritual power - spiritual power transmission.

Generally speaking, as long as a monk has spiritual powers, he can master the skills after practice.

Soon, Lan Wangji suddenly nodded and said, "They shouldn't be sending any more help, because Canglang Mountain is about to open, and the four sects are preparing for this." ”

"I almost forgot if you didn't say it," Xuan Donglai said with a sudden expression, and then put away the city defense map on the stone table, "Then after the matter here is over, you have to hurry back." ”

"That's inevitable." Lan Wangji nodded and stopped mentioning the matter.

"Okay, I'll go to Commander Liu to inform you of this, and Wang Mu's teaching course will be handed over to you today."

Saying that, Xuan Donglai didn't care if Lan Wangji disagreed, turned around and left.

Lan Wangji opened his mouth and looked at Xuan Donglai's back, his lips squirmed.

Wang Mu didn't hear what he was saying, but the blind guess should be a curse.

"Okay, in that case, it's just the two of us again today, come, check your little Five Elements Technique first."

Lan Wangji pulled over a stone bench and sat on the side and said to Wang Mu.

An hour later, Lan Wangji rubbed his cheeks, suppressed the shock in his heart, and reminded himself to get used to the evil things Wang Mu had shown.

"Then today's guidance on cultivation is here first, and then you can ask questions, what do you want to ask?"

As he spoke, he took a sip from his teacup.

Wang Mu thought for a while, and took out a gray stone from the mustard seed bag: "Senior, junior wants to know what this thing is." ”

This gray stone had been seen by Wang Mu in the mustard seed bag of the Qi Refining Eight-Layer Mist Sect disciple who had been killed in that Liangshan Village.

And now he saw it in the mustard bag of the Fog Cultist who assassinated him.

But no matter how much he searched the books, he couldn't find any information about the gray stone.

It's as if it's really just an ordinary stone.

But how could an ordinary stone be put into a mustard seed bag by the Fog Cultists?

"Oh, this one, if you kill a few more Mist Cultists in the future, you will find that almost every one of them has one of these stones."

Lan Wangji glanced at it, and the gray stone said casually, "This gray stone is the crystallization of the Misty Thing, and it is also the most important connection between the Fog Sect Sect and the accompanying Monster. ”

"In the world of cultivation, people usually call this kind of stone a fog stone."

"With this stone in their hands, those Mist Cultists will be able to manipulate the accompanying artifact, and once the stone shatters, the artifact will get out of control and cause us to distinguish between friend and foe, and they will be killed by the artifact themselves."

"To the monks, this gray stone is of little use, but to the Fog Cultists, the fog stone is reusable and very important to them."

"It's not a good thing to keep on your body, let's find a chance to destroy it."

Wang Mu put away the stone with some regret and nodded.

He thought the gray stone was some precious thing.

"What's the problem?"

Wang Mu thought for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and finally threw out a question that was unlikely to come from the mouth of a monk of his strength.

"Seniors, juniors want to know, what are the rumors that there are three ways to build a foundation?"

Wang Mu looked at Lan Wangji with a serious expression.

Lan Wangji raised his eyebrows slightly: "The matter of building the foundation is still far away from you, right?" What do you want to do so much now? It's just a matter of distracting thoughts. ”

"This doubt arose many years ago when the younger generation saw it in a book."

Wang Mu replied with a shy smile.

"Over the years, it has been a mystery in my heart, if it is inconvenient for the seniors to answer, the younger generations will no longer ask."

Lan Wangji laughed at this time: "It's not inconvenient, since you asked, it doesn't hurt to know in advance with your heart." ”

"Yes, there are rumors in the cultivation realm that there are three methods of foundation building in the world."

"The foundation of heaven, the foundation of the tunnel, and the foundation of humanity are the names of the three methods of foundation building."

"And in this world, the vast majority of monks are humanitarian."

Lan Wangji said lightly.

"It's not a secret that doesn't have to be passed on, as long as you get to the foundation, these things are basics."

Lan Wangji said eloquently in his favorite way of questioning: "Then why do the vast majority of foundation building monks build the foundation humanely? ”
